I would suggest individual posts for now for the sake of flow, since collabs tend to operate outside of the usual mass posts followed by master post formula. Though I should mention this much: don’t get too far ahead about finding any ironsand or herbs. Because you’re traveling so slowly. There will be an encounter before you’re even halfway to the riverbed. 

If need be we can do a collab so it’s easier to understand.

@Black Keys

Certainly, just be aware to remain within your budget, and because you’ll be in such a hurry to meet up and help Shem’et this will leave no time for bargaining. You buy at default market price.

@ihinka

I won’t say, first you two should actually complete a post first. I’ll reveal the result of your rolls in my next master post.

@Black Keys

Unfortunately no, as Shem’et rolls have already been decided, meaning that she had done her own searching/watching independently.

Since you’ve already done a roll for each, Jarynth May as well do each roll for himself as well. Doing them seperately like that now would be pointless at best since that just means Jarynth won’t be able to do any better then what Shem’et did, though ultimately that’ll be Black key’s choice. Presumably you’re both traveling together so unless Jarynth intends to move ahead of Shem’et, doing less will simply allow him to cover more ground.

@Black Keys

Well if you want to travel with her, sure you can roll as well. Same thing as Shem’et; Survival, Perception, then a survival or nature,

@Black Keys

Actually yeah, you could be involved too. Ask Ihinka of course but I’ve got nothing against people working together.

@ihinka

Unfortunately since he only showed you a drawing and not like, an ecological diagram of the herb, no advantage. But you can still roll for it.

I can tell you right now you’re going to be in for a long trip.

@ihinka
Aight so just like with Zeroth who wanted to track and remained alert/hiding from enemies, you’ll can do that but you will be going at a slower pace, meaning that it’ll take you longer to complete your tasks which means a higher chance of running into something in the forest. Of course even if you go more quickly that just means you’ll run into less things, but they might get the jump on you. Your choice.

In any case in order to start getting a better idea of your surroundings and marking them as you go, I’ll need a survival check. As for being on guard and alert, I’ll need either a perception check or you can just use your passive perception (that’s 10+Wisdom+Proficency if you’re profiecnt with perception). Do note that if you roll you must stick with the result even if you roll lower than your passive perception.

And finally, to actually find those iron sand diposites, you’ll need to do either a survival or a nature check. It’s a survival instead of a perception since you have no frame of reference for what exactly Ironsand looks like, since it’s not immediately obvious, though once you find what you think ought to be the right thing you can then use perception checks. The same thing will apply for the herbs.

Now I should reliterate that trying to do all three things by yourself will severely cut down how quickly you can do all of this. Just tracking your progress alone will cut your travel speed by half if you’re trying to be even halfway accurate using an inaccurate map, then it’ll cut t down even further since you’ll be cautiously approaching things in the forest whilst looking for danger, and finally you’ll have to spend even more time tracking and examining your surroundings for signs of ironsand.

All-in-all, you’ll be moving at about 1/10 of your normal speed while doing all the things you want to do. And that’s not including the time it’ll take for you to actually hike to the dry riverbed Bookie marked on the map, which is about an hours walk away if you went at normal speed.

@Duthguy

Oh shit did I? Sorry man. You’re good to post too.
